AnnualMean

Compute annual mean insolation for a given orbit and solar constant

R package to compute Incoming Solar Radiation (insolation) for palaeoclimate studies. Features three solutions: Berger (1978), Berger and Loutre (1991) and Laskar et al. (2004). Computes daily-mean, season-averaged and annual means and for all latitudes, and polar night dates.
